Commercial Range Hood Installation in Queens
Commercial range hood & exhaust hood installation for Queens restaurants — Type I & II hoods, welded and FDNY-ready, from Astoria to Flushing.
Commercial Range Hood Installation · Queens
Your hood is the single most scrutinized piece of equipment in a NYC commercial kitchen. Undersize it, run the duct wrong, or skip a weld and you fail inspection, lose your opening date, and burn money on a kitchen you can't legally fire up. Star HVAC & Hood Installation Company designs and installs commercial range hoods across all five boroughs that are built to the NYC Mechanical and Fire Codes from day one.
Queens ranges from century-old low-rise storefronts to brand-new LIC towers, so every job is a different duct run — a short roof shot in Astoria, or a six-floor riser in a high-rise. We scope it on the free site visit.
What our NYC hood installations include
Type I Grease Hoods
For fryers, griddles, charbroilers, and ranges. Stainless construction with listed grease filters and a fully welded, liquid-tight grease duct to NYC fire code.
Type II Heat & Steam Hoods
For ovens, dishwashers, kettles, and steamers. Sized to clear heat and condensation so your kitchen stays comfortable and your ceilings stay dry.
Exhaust Fans & Make-Up Air
Roof or wall exhaust fans matched to your CFM, plus tempered make-up air so doors don't slam, pilots don't blow out, and the hood actually captures.
Inspection-Ready Documentation
Welded-duct photos, equipment cut sheets, and CFM calculations packaged for FDNY and DOB so sign-off is a formality, not a fight.

Do you serve all of Queens?+
Yes — Astoria, Long Island City, Flushing, Jackson Heights, Elmhurst, Jamaica, Forest Hills, Corona, and every neighborhood in between. We cover the whole borough for hood, ventilation, HVAC, and build-out work.
Do I need a Type I or Type II hood for my kitchen?+
If you cook with grease — fryers, griddles, charbroilers, ranges — you need a Type I grease hood. If you only produce heat or steam, like ovens, dishwashers, and steam kettles, a Type II hood is appropriate. Many NYC kitchens need both, and we'll confirm exactly what your equipment line requires on the site visit.
How much does commercial range hood installation cost in NYC?+
It depends on hood size and type, the length and routing of the grease duct, rooftop fan access, make-up air, and fire-suppression. We give a free on-site assessment and an itemized quote so you see the full cost before any work starts.
Will the hood pass FDNY inspection?+
Yes — that's the point. We weld grease ducts liquid-tight, size exhaust and make-up air to code, and document everything FDNY and DOB inspectors check, so your kitchen passes and gets signed off.
Can you install a hood in an older NYC building?+
Absolutely. Routing a grease duct up through an existing building is our specialty — shared shafts, multi-floor runs, and landmarked exteriors included. We assess the building on the free visit and engineer the run around it.
How long does a hood installation take?+
A straightforward single-hood install is often a few days; a full line with a long duct run and rooftop fan takes longer. We schedule around your service hours wherever possible so you keep operating.
